These things are RANDOM in nature. They happen, then they don't. Hard to reproduce or define a pattern. Like the whole thing is totally unstable. No errors or whatsoever show up when using firebug lite.

Re: Guess I know now why my app isn't getting approved...

I made a video of one of the totally WEIRD things that happen on my simulator.

My app starts with the blackberry logo animation. As you can see, when i type something in the box and hit the button, the app RESTARTS itself.

I had someone else test my .bar file and they didn't get any anomalies of this type.

I tried completely reinstalling the VM but the behavior stays. Sometimes it works but most of the time I get this. I'm totally clueless on how to get this environment to behave right again so I can continue development

Re: Guess I know now why my app isn't getting approved...

Yes the app was fine in 0.9.3. I have submitted a signed bar. I couldn't run that bar AT ALL in the new simulator. It would only give me a blank screen. So I went ahead and recompiled it using the 0.9.4 SDK which resulted in an app that runs but gives me all sorts of erratic behavior in the 0.9.4 sim.

I'm pretty much blocked right now from any new development (still working on the editor part) because when something weird happens there's no way to tell whether it's my code or the simulator acting out.

Re: Guess I know now why my app isn't getting approved...

so it working on other vm's nullifies any of your code having the issue, though it might not hurt to try.what does your vmware player log file say during these events? I'm running vmware player in linux so i cant tell you where the log is, or how to turn it on if its not default, i would imagine a command line option like --log or something.

Re: Guess I know now why my app isn't getting approved...

oh yeah sorry i didnt think fully on that one, i doubt the vn will report an error unless the whoe enviroment crashed, this is sys internal, and since its reloading ....ohhhh i know

ok so use the local sqlite enviroment to write output from firebug to the db, its async so you should be able to put an event handler on the button press to init the firebug output to potentially catch the error before the app gets reloaded.

or maybe somehow you grabbed a bad release of the vm, try downloading again, or i can put mine up on one of my servers
